چکیده

مقدمه: نقص در آپوپتوزیس (Apoptosis) نقش مهمی در تشکیل تومورها بازی می‌کند و به هم خوردن تنظیم آن، باعث مقاومت به درمان می‌شود. تأثیرات انار در مهار آپوپتوزیس و تکثیر سلولى برخی از سرطان‌ها به اثبات رسیده است. در این مطالعه، به بررسی تأثیر عصاره‌ی پوست انار سیاه بر بقای سلولی، مورفولوژی و آپوپتوزیس سلول‌های ملانوما و اندوتلیال پرداخته شد.روش‌ها: عصاره‌ی هیدروالکلی انار پوست سیاه تهیه شد. آزمون سنجش سمیت MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) با دزهای (10، 100، 200 و 300 میکروگرم بر میلی‌لیتر) عصاره و گروه شاهد با دی‌متیل سولفوکساید 1/0 درصد، بر روی رده‌های ملانوما و اندوتلیال انجام شد. آپوپتوزیس با استفاده از کیت Annexin-V و دستگاه فلوسیتومتر و مورفولوژی سلول‌ها با میکروسکوپ بررسی گردید.یافته‌ها: عصاره‌ی انار در مدت زمان 48 ساعت به طور وابسته به دز، موجب کاهش معنی‌دار درصد بقای سلول‌های ملانوما شد (05/0 > P)، اما بر سلول‌های اندوتلیال اثر سمی نداشت. تیمار با دز (5/77 میکروگرم بر میلی‌لیتر) IC50 (Half maximal inhibitory concentration) منجر به القای آپوپتوزیس اولیه (05/43 درصد) و ثانویه‌ی (05/0 درصد) ملانوما گردیدکه نسبت به گروه شاهد افزایش معنی‌دار داشت (05/0 > P) و 9/56 درصد سلول‌های زنده سالم بودند. القای آپوپتوزیس در سلول‌های اندوتلیال مشاهده نشد؛ تنها سلول‌های ملانوما پس از تیمار، دچار تغییرات مورفولوژیک از جمله چروکیدگی و گرد شدن غشا شدند.نتیجه‌گیری: عصاره‌ی پوست انار سیاه، باعث القای آپوپتوزیس، مرگ و تغییر مورفولوژی سلول‌های ملانوما می‌شود، اما بر روی سلول‌های اندوتلیال اثر ندارد. به نظر می‌رسد که این عصاره، می‌تواند با آزمایش‌های بیشتر به عنوان گزینه‌ی مناسبی برای القای آپوپتوزیس سلول‌های سرطانی ملانوما به عنوان درمان کمکی استفاده شود.

چکیده [English]

Background: Apoptosis defect plays an important role in the formation of tumors and its disruption causes resistance to treatment. The effects of pomegranate on the inhibition of apoptosis and cell proliferation of some cancer types have been demonstrated. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of black pomegranate peel extract on cell survival, morphology, and apoptosis of melanoma cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).Methods: The hydroalcoholic extract of black pomegranate pericarp was prepared. Toxicity of melanoma and HUVEC was evaluated through MTT assay (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) in the experimental group at different concentrations of the extract (10, 100, 200, 300 μg/ml) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) 0.1% in the control group. In addition, apoptosis was studied using Annexin-V test and flow cytometry. The morphology of the cells was examined under a microscope.Findings: After 48 hours, melanoma cell survival significantly decreased in a concentration-dependent manner (P < 0.05), but it had no effect on HUVEC proliferation. Exposure of cells to half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) at a dose of 77.5 μg/ml led to the induction of early apoptosis (43.05%) and late apoptosis (0.05%) in melanoma cells that was significantly increased compared to the control group (P < 0.05). In addition, 56.9% of cells were healthy. Apoptosis induction was not observed in HUVECs. Pomegranate peel extract only induced morphological changes such as cell shrinkage and rounding of cell membrane in melanoma cells.Conclusion: Pomegranate peel extract induces apoptosis, death, and morphological changes in melanoma cells. However, it has no effect on HUVECs. It seems that this extract can be a good candidate for apoptosis induction in melanoma cells as complementary therapy.
